# ChatGPT

**Profile.** ChatGPT is a public Large Language Model from OpenAI. Canonical reference: OpenAI's ChatGPT product page.

**Role in this source.** Named twice: (1) as the catalyst for the 42% increase in academic submissions reported by [[entity-organization-science]] since its 'late 2022 release,' and (2) later as an example of a public model that should be used merely as a styling/formatting engine rather than a core insight generator — the recommendation in [[claim-public-llms-low-value]] and [[action-use-proprietary-slms]].

**Note (enrichment).** The overlay flags ChatGPT as an example of an external tool frequently used by knowledge workers without clear governance.
